PSALM 96
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1O sing a new song to the Lord:
sing all the earth to God.
2To God sing, bless his name, shew still
his saving health abroad.
3Among the heathen nations
his glory do declare;
And unto all the people shew
his works that wondrous are.
4For great's the Lord,
and greatly he is to be magnify'd;
Yea, worthy to be fear'd is he
above all gods beside.
5For all the gods are idols dumb,
which blinded nations fear;
But our God is the Lord, by whom
the heav'ns created were.
6Great honour is before his face,
and majesty divine;
Strength is within his holy place,
and there doth beauty shine.
7Do ye ascribe unto the Lord,
of people ev'ry tribe,
Glory do ye unto the Lord,
and mighty pow'r ascribe.
8Give ye the glory to the Lord
that to his name is due;
Come ye into his courts, and bring
an offering with you.
9In beauty of his holiness,
O do the Lord adore;
Likewise let all the earth throughout
tremble his face before.
10Among the heathen say, God reigns;
the world shall stedfastly
Be fix'd from moving; he shall judge
the people righteously.
11Let heav'ns be glad before the Lord,
and let the earth rejoice;
Let seas, and all that is therein,
cry out, and make a noise.
12Let fields rejoice, and ev'ry thing
that springeth of the earth:
Then woods and ev'ry tree shall sing
with gladness and with mirth
13Before the Lord; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
He'll judge the world with righteousness,
the people faithfully.

Psalms 96
96
God the Supreme King
(1 Chr 16.23–33)
1Sing a new song to the LORD!
Sing to the LORD, all the world!
2Sing to the LORD, and praise him!
Proclaim every day the good news that he has saved us.
3Proclaim his glory to the nations,
his mighty deeds to all peoples.
4The LORD is great and is to be highly praised;
he is to be honoured more than all the gods.
5The gods of all other nations are only idols,
but the LORD created the heavens.
6Glory and majesty surround him;
power and beauty fill his Temple.

Ps 29.1–2
Praise the LORD, all people on earth;
praise his glory and might.
8Praise the LORD's glorious name;
bring an offering and come into his Temple.
9Bow down before the Holy One when he appears;#96.9 when he appears; or in garments of worship.
tremble before him, all the earth!
10Say to all the nations, “The LORD is king!
The earth is set firmly in place and cannot be moved;
he will judge the peoples with justice.”
11Be glad, earth and sky!
Roar, sea, and every creature in you;
12be glad, fields, and everything in you!
The trees in the woods will shout for joy
13when the LORD comes to rule the earth.
He will rule the peoples of the world
with justice and fairness.
